In an interview granted to The Paris Review, The New York Review Of Books, Time, Newsweek, and Us Weekly, Salinger called Christian Bale "the most badass version of John Connor yet" and described the film's postapocalyptic war with the machines setting as "totally mind-blowing."
...and...
Although the sole film made from Salinger's work, My Foolish Heart, based on his short story "Uncle Wiggily In Connecticut," was considered by Salinger to be such a bastardization of his prose that he never agreed to another adaptation, he now states that "if McG wants to do any of my stuff—'A Perfect Day For Bananafish'; Raise High The Roof Beam, Carpenters; hell, all of Nine Stories—he has my complete permission. Anything. Anything he wants."
Basically, it's just interesting things I found while surfing the internet. Or, you know, stuff that I read.
I'm a huge fan of sports, of politics and a little bit of geeky web stuff thrown in.
If you have anything that looks interesting and you'd like to pass along, send it onto StuffIReadToday [at] gmail [dot] com -- it doesn't necessarily have to be something you read. It could be a video, a song, a picture... just as long as it is interesting.
